Do You Love Me Like I Love You: Part 5 - Tender Prey -- A five minute clip from the short film by acclaimed British artists Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard commissioned by Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds to accompany the reissue of their classic album Tender Prey (originally released in 1988). Iain Forsyth & Jane Pollard have a refreshingly bold, touching and witty approach to making documentaries. 'Do you love me like I love you - Tender Prey' features a compelling collage of famous, infamous and unknown individuals talking directly to camera about what the music of Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds means to them. This five minute clip drops in on the contributors talking about The Mercy Seat, one of the most famous Nick Cave songs, which was covered by Johnny Cash. The whole 40 minute film is a subjective human portrait told through those who have lived and loved the music. The film features former Bad Seeds Kid Congo Powers, Blixa Bargeld, the producer Flood, Primal Scream's Bobby Gillespie, Suicide's Alan Vega, Yeah Yeah Yeah's guitarist Nick Zinner, Mudhoney's Mark Arm, Mute's Daniel Miller and actor Noah Taylor.
